No set fee, and good points money is how it should be. But I guess riders being asked to guest, can dictate terms to a degree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 Covatti rode in great pain for Somerset. Ideally needs rest so a guest booking wouldnt be top of his wish list - next....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrss Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 Another poor meeting tonight. Two overtakes on a quick track. Too many restarts caused by referee holding the tapes down too long. Too much whinging by Panthers riders about track conditions. The only positive is the Stars got all the league points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying I will never go again it’s just not for me at the moment . If do don't go you are not allowed to show an interest and are obliged to delete the sport from your life! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These people haven't been to a meeting in years by their own admission yet still think they have a valid opinion on what's happening now. Its their choice not to go, that's fine, but I've lost my local track because of ' non-attenders' who all went years ago and still feel free to slag the sport and then bemoan the state of the sport and the fact tracks are closing. Ludicrous! Dedicated supporters who have been going for years suddenly stop going! Ever asked yourself why? 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rolling in. It's peanuts, but keeps speedway on the box. Sky gave big money, but it seems it was chanalled elsewhere 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bald Bloke Posted July 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 59 minutes ago, BlackPanther said: Some guests I will stick up for. Chris Harris on Monday must have been fatigued after the trip to Russia so he gets a pass. Josh Grajczonek was probably the only rider we could have booked to guest tonight with 6 teams racing. However the bookings of Erik Riss, Lewis Kerr & Simon Lambert is an utter p155 take. Could of booked Ricky Wells or Rasmus Jensen on Monday amongst others. Nico Covatti could've been booked tonight. I know i'm going to get reply's saying how do you know Buster didn't try and get those riders but please just be honest look at the pattern emerging it's no coincidence that every time we need a guest it just so happens to be a King's Lynn rider from this season. I don't see people moaning about a terrible showing from a good guest in Josh, who wasn't cheap . But slagging Buster for Simon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can answer that. I was told on here by an ex promoter when I stopped going after following the sport world-wide for forty years, that I was never a speedway fan in the first place.

Icicle Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 That may be , but if the product poor as it seems, slow, poor quality racing no wonder going down, he needs to get the presentation & product better & then he might have a chance 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
